Building alpine Bushcraft Shelter | Survival materials, shingle roof, stone wall [Pt. 1]
Ойын-сауық
Rocks and deadwood are basically all that is needed to build a protective shelter in the wild. I found this rubble on a mountain, which provided the suitable material for the walls. The whole construction is free of synthetic material. The nails and dowels are also made of wood. The roof is mostly waterproof, altough the shingles are a bit twisted due to a light vortex grwoth of the tree I used to split them. It will take a few months until they flat out by their own, due to the interaction of rain, drying, the weight of the rocks and the mass of snow on top. In the 2nd part I will finish the interior and the stove. Please leave a comment for suggestions and wishes. Have fun watching!
Take a look at my merch tools from Cut360 made in Stubai, Austria:

You are a cut above the rest. Just epic. So tired of seeing great starts to shelters, only to bail and put plastic on the roof. Thank you for going the extra mile!

Wow very nice camping shelter , that’s a lot of job ❤
That’s the first time I see someone using a froe to make wood shingles. Very unique build. Thank you for sharing!
I did have fun watching your rare combination of skills and vision. Thank you for sharing this. I suppose some people will think your attention to detail and to beauty are excessive, but that seems to me to be the point. The mere existence of this beautiful dwelling place will stay with me when I most need that comfort. Although I am an old woman (in years, anyway), I find myself thinking I should remember the construction details so I can build my own. A good laugh for me.
Viel aus dem Video gelernt. Das ist noch echte Handwerkskunst. Einfach nur toll !!!

I like the technique you used to strip the planks from a log for the roof tiles, that was nice. That tool must be so sharp. Great shelter build. These are good skills you have.
I’ve built a couple primitive shelters by myself, primarily from pine and took me @ a month on each using the basic saw, axe, shovel and mallet This build is however over the top, definitely not for a beginner. Great job!

I both liked the content and was impressed with his brother's appearance and style. Admire these wonderful hands. KZread's recommendation feature brought this video to Vietnam. great relaxation
Anyone who has ever hefted granite by hand can apreciate the effort on the base! the rest of your build is fantastic, did you leave space for a fire place?, at my age now i use Z drag, A frame & tripod mechanical assistance along with wagon type transport to build things. Im really happy to see young people developing real skills like this

Hello, well this shelter is not for long term use, I have to throw it down within a coulpe of years. But at least I can reuse the shingles for further projects. I chose this place especially because of the large availability of building material and a certain amount of protection from noises down the valley, which is very important for filming

Nice work on this build. I especially like the all-wood aspect to it: in that there are no metal nails. I know some people put clay in with the dry stacked rocks as a way to seal the wall and keep it warmer in the winter. I am curious about part two. Cheers.

Very impressed with this solid build. Don't often get to see stone shelters made with thick enough wall bases. Making thick walls looks like it is easier to fill in gaps and will hold warm temps once the stones heat up.

This is one awesome build! Love that this guy uses basic tools and resources from the land.
Great build. You have to be proud of yourself.
Such a great result for such hard work . Congratulations superb!
This hillside retreat should stand the test of time as it is truly a part of the mountain. Would love to see part two the finishing of the walls and relying for use😊

All that's missing is a four legged friend to keep you company, and aware of any sneaky intruders as well!
Great job of dry stacking the stones and making the foundation walls extra thick. Nice to see how you made your own shingles for the roof, and using weight of rocks to keep them from warping. Hope you do a second video of this shelter to show how you make a fireplace and bed platform. Any plans for a permanent door and window?
Ten thumbs up! I had to watch this again. I love your work. Very professional.

How skilled you are! I'm impressed. Insert a firewood in the shelter and make some nice videos during snow! Would be nice to know how freezing is outside and compare with the cozy indoors!

This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen on KZread in a while!
The construction is quite comfortable to enjoy
Beautiful!
Building on a talus slope certainly has the advantage of availability of rock, but the reason that rock is there is because something unstable is uphill from it. An avalanche or earthquake could bring more down on you. I love the craftsmanship and the froe. My brother made a froe about 50 years ago to replace some of the shakes on the log cabin we spent our summers in as children. I am more partial to a saddle corner where only the bottom sides of logs are notched with a curved notch. Notches on the top surface collect moisture and speed decay.

Hello, on the video recordings it may look like you mean, but in real life its different. On the upper, steep side is just sand and pebbles. The larger stones are all down and this terrain didn't change since I was a child. Unless there are no natural extreme conditions there is no danger

This video is great 😃 you have exceptional skills!!
Really enjoyed this video. Shared it. Good stuff. Thanks.
So awesome! I liked that you burned the logs before putting them in the ground to stop decay. I love the wooden peg idea and your roof. It always puzzles me why a person builds a shelter with surrounding natural materials then cover the rest with a man-made plastic sheet. Thank you for not doing that. I enjoyed watching you build. Thank you for sharing this with me and others.
WOW U MANUFACTURED YOUR OWN ROOF SHINGLES👏👏👏👏 u avoided plastic sheet cover which many use
Love this kind of stuff. Interesting.
Stay healthy.🎂👍👏
This was a very nice build. I'm grateful you are building in the type of environment that I wish to bushcraft in myself. It offers a good perspective on how to potentially build shelters around the aea(s) I wish to build in. I also am glad that you provided a 'How-To' for the planks you carved out. I'm excited to see how this project proceeds in the future.
